Multi‐Omic Profiling Reveals Immune Cell Priming Signature Linked to Lupus Prognosis
Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.Objective Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a multiorgan disease with widespread immune dysregulation and significant unmet clinical need. Blood‐based gene expression studies have advanced our understanding of SLE pathogenesis but may overlook critical tissue‐specific mechanisms that drive disease heterogeneity and progression.

Arthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.Objective Disease activity plays a central role in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) clinical studies. The inconsistent availability of data on disease activity in real‐world electronic health records (EHR) data has limited the ability to generate real‐world evidence (RWE). This study aimed to develop and validate scalable machine learning (ML) models to infer

Pharmacogenetic CYP2B6 variants affect steroid hormone metabolism in human breast cancer cells
British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.Common genetic CYP2B6 variants correlate with adverse breast cancer outcome. The oestrogen metabolites estriol and 16‐epiestriol, which are formed downstream of CYP2B6‐catalysed 16α/β‐hydroxytestosterone, may be linked to elevated breast cancer risk and might increase due to the demonstrated CYP2B6 variants‐related metabolic shifts.
